Bolillo is a traditional Mexican bread roll, often referred to as the Mexican baguette due to its crisp crust and soft, airy interior. Made with simple ingredients like wheat flour, water, yeast, and salt, bolillos are slightly smaller and denser than their French counterparts but equally versatile. These rolls are a staple in Mexican cuisine, commonly used in dishes like tortas (sandwiches) or served alongside soups and stews. Nutritionally, bolillos provide carbohydrates for quick energy but contain minimal amounts of fiber and protein. They are relatively low in fat, but their healthfulness depends greatly on portion size and what they’re paired with; fillings like veggies and lean proteins can balance out their caloric content, while greasy or sugary accompaniments may detract from it. As a refined carbohydrate, moderation is key when incorporating bolillos into a balanced diet.
